Loved being near the water and lighthouse. We took morning stools and even saw whales. There is a sign up list for the Northern Lights, if they are good, staff will come you your room and get you/wake you up.

Lovely stay in a charming location near the historic lighthouse. The staff were a delight and incredibly helpful during my stay. I wish I could have spent more time during daylight hours to walk the coastline and enjoy the restaurant, though the overall accommodation was perfect for my last night in Iceland. I will definitely be back!

Property was pristine; rooms were beautiful and clean. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The breakfast lady was really kind. It’s a little drive outside of Reykjavik but definitely worth it. We will be staying again.

Outstanding little inn with a very friendly staff that knocks on your door in the middle of the night to let you know that the lights are in the sky. By no means is it palatial but it is exactly what you need if you come to Iceland to see the lights. It is located in the perfect location for just that. Bring your own TP … theirs is like sandpaper. You’ll need a car for this location too unless you’re comfortable taking a bus or calling for a cab. I’d recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Iceland.
